The registration
fee is $125 per child with discounts for multiple children.
We offer these camps to give kids the
opportunity to learn from hands on experiences. Our camper
to adult ratio is 6 campers to one adult leader and one helper.
This allows us to offer meaningful learning experiences so the
kids come away with skills they can use the rest of their lives.
All of our camps take place
entirely outdoors. Part of our mission is getting kids outdoors.
We have sun shelters and built in cool down activities for hot days and
plans for rain.
Each camp includes
time to explore the nature trail and sample some of the special
things the gardens have to offer i.e. picking and eating blackberries
and raspberries
and lots of flowers for bouquets.
Parents (and grandparents) are welcome to accompany their children at no
extra charge. If you want to learn how to garden for example, come with
your child and learn together.

Guidelines and policies
- Youngest campers must be entering the first grade in the fall,
2008. Children entering kindergarten will be considered if a parent
is willing to accompany the child. There is no upper age limit.
|
- Please make sure your child has
a hardy breakfast before
coming to camp. Please do not send food of any kind.
The cooking camp includes preparing a light brunch
each day. Chances are your child
will come home hungry after being active outdoors all morning.
|
- Please send your child to camp with a
bag containing a refillable water bottle, the sunscreen you prefer (Children
will not be allowed to participate without sunscreen.) and a towel.
Please make sure your child's name is on all of the items including the bag.
|
- Please make sure your child is dressed appropriately
for working outdoors. We know that kids have shoe
preferences but for our camps, gyms shoes are the best
choice. Absolutely no slip on
shoes i.e. flip flops.
|
- Please have campers
checked in by 8:45
a.m. and be there to pick them up no later than 12:30 p.m. Children must
be signed in and out, not just dropped off.
|
- Registration is limited to a maximum of 12 campers.
We are only offering one camp this year.
|
- Cancellation policy - We accept your
paid reservations in good faith and reserve a spot for your child.
If you notify us that you must cancel up to two weeks before camp is due
to start, you will receive a full refund. Please do not wait until the
last minute. If you cancel less than two weeks before a camp is due
to start, we will issue a credit to be used on a future camp but will not
issue a refund. Refunds will be made if a session is canceled due
to insufficient registration or
exceptional weather conditions.
